Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Vancouver ChinaTown, 106 Keefer St, Vancouver, British Columbia V6A 1X4 Canada

Chinatown is known for its buzzing food scene, which includes traditional Asian bakeries, dim sum restaurants and hip cocktail bars. Jars of ginseng and dried fish line the shelves of old-school apothecaries, while Chinese groceries stocked with live seafood and exotic vegetables share the streets with indie fashion shops.


Stop At: Gastown, Waterfront between Granville and Main Sts. North of Hastings St., Vancouver, British Columbia V6B 2K7 Canada

Lively Gastown is known for its whistling Steam Clock and mix of souvenir shops, indie art galleries and decor stores in Victorian buildings. A trendy food and drink scene includes chic cocktail lounges and restaurants serving everything from gourmet sandwiches to local seafood. Hip eateries also dot the neighboring Downtown Eastside area, while the up-and-coming Railtown district is home to edgy fashion studios.

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Stanley Park, Stanley Park, Vancouver, British Columbia

Stanley Park is a 405-hectare public park that borders the downtown of Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada and is almost entirely surrounded by waters of Vancouver Harbour and English Bay. The park has a long history and was one of the first areas to be explored in the city.


Duration: 40 minutes

Pass By: English Bay, 1795 Beach Ave, Vancouver, British Columbia V6G 1Y9 Canada

English Bay Beach, near the city's West End residential neighborhood, is the most popular sunbathing, swimming, and sunset-watching beach in the downtown Vancouver area. English Bay Beach is host to a number of public events. The Celebration of Light is a fireworks competition that is held for two weeks every summer

Stop At: Queen Elizabeth Park, 4600 Cambie St, Vancouver, British Columbia V5Y 2M4 Canada

Queen Elizabeth Park, Vancouver’s horticultural jewel, is a major draw for floral display enthusiasts and view-seekers, and as a popular backdrop for wedding photos. At 152 meters above sea level, it’s the highest point in Vancouver and makes for spectacular views of the park, city, and mountains on the North Shore.

The 52-hectare park is home to the stunning Bloedel Conservatory. There is also a gorgeously landscaped quarry garden, the arboretum with its collection of exotic and native trees, sculptures including one by internationally renowned artist Henry Moore, and diverse recreational offerings such as tennis, lawn bowling and pitch & putt.

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Granville Island, Vancouver, British Columbia V6H 3S3 Canada

In the early 1900s, Granville Island was home to factories, plants and sawmills. Things are a little different today—Granville Island is both a locals’ favorite and a huge draw for visitors. Technically a sandbar and not an island, the neighborhood sits just south of the downtown peninsula, right under the Granville Bridge. The Granville Island Public Market acts as a hub of activity and it’s also one of the city’s most important cultural districts with theatres, artisan workshops and craft studios.

Enjoy your time here to shop or just to enjoy a wonderful meal. Many restaurants for you to choose from.

    I'm glad that I booked this and highly recommend it for anyone who is new to Vancouver and doesn't know the neighborhoods yet or well. Great 3-hour highlights tour in a comfortable van - Stanley Park, Gastown, Granville Island, etc. Erick was great - sweet, knowledgeable, easy-going. Not cheap, but well worth it!

    Our guide, Eric, took us on a scheduled tour but if we weren’t interested in a particular area, he passed that and we spent more time where we were interested. The private tour in a luxury vehicle was excellent

    When I found this tour on La Vacanza Travel I was hesitating to book because of the price but after reading though other reviews, decided to book the tour and haven't regret a second. Erik is an outstanding guide. While driving his comfortable, clean, and spacious van, Erik showed us a lot of interesting places in Vancouver, told their histories while making a lot of jokes and cheering conversation. My youngest kids fall in love with Erik and everyone enjoyed the tour very much. We even extended it and included Capilano Bridge adventure tour and it was awesome!

    Eric was a fantastic guide! We learned so much of the history of Vancouver and he offered many interesting details that we could not have otherwise learned. He was also funny and had us laughing the entire time. Highly recommend!!
